Yipin Tang

Chapter 34

Wang Xiang, who had always been at leisure, suddenly became busy. In addition to going to Si Nong Temple to look at potatoes from time to time, he also went to Lizheng Hall to check on the condition of Empress Changsun every day, relying on the first aid that Wang Xiang learned in his previous life. What knowledge can check, it is said to check the condition, but in fact it is to talk to Li Er and his wife. Li Er is afraid that there is something wrong with his medicine. It is also necessary to pretend to cooperate with the inspection.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty's illness is not suitable for staying in the house all the time. You should go out for a walk more often, and asthma is most afraid of smoke and fire. It is better not to burn incense in the house."

Wang Xiang couldn't help but wanted to complain a long time ago. He was coughing badly, but he had to burn incense in the house. I don't know how much incense was lit. The whole room was filled with smoke. Even Wang Xiang, a healthy person, couldn't stand it. It would be strange for an asthma patient to stay in such an environment for a long time without getting sick.

Li Er has an advantage, that is, he can listen to advice, and has seen the efficacy of the pills. In this regard, Li Er still trusts Wang Xiang and immediately asks people to remove all the incense.

After a while, seeing that Empress Changsun showed no signs of illness, Li Er's urination of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge broke again: "Well, there is nothing for you here, you should go back first."

For this kind of person, Wang Xiang despises or despises. Fortunately, the little girl is different from his father. Ever since she knew that it was Wang Xiang's medicine that cured her mother, every time Wang Xiang was about to leave, the little girl would take her favorite food. From this point, Wang Xiang knew that this girl must have a bright future, especially after eating the fruit, Wang Xiang burst into tears, thinking that this girl is extraordinary, and eating sour is the only way to be human. Venerable Master, he finally understood why Li Shimin was so happy when he saw the little si gave him fruit.

Wang Xiang couldn't bear to disappoint Xiao Sizi's heart, not to mention that Li Er's warning face was obviously saying: You can figure it out, if my daughter is unhappy, you understand...so in Xiao Sizi's anticipation Under his eyes, Wang Xiang chewed the fruit "happily" and his face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.

When he arrived at the Degui Restaurant, Wang Xiang's tongue was still numb, and Li Zhi made fun of him as soon as he opened his mouth.

Why is Li Zhi here?Because the little loli is here.Why is little loli here?Because Wang Xiang wants to rebuild the Degui Restaurant.

Speaking of which, this matter should have started a long time ago. First, the marriage, and then the matter of Cheng Chuliang and Empress Changsun, so it was delayed until now. Fortunately, Wang Xiangshe got the wages. Almost, the interior of the restaurant is completely different from the original one.

The name of the restaurant has also been changed to Dengxianlou. When the signboard of Degui Restaurant was replaced, Degui was still a little bit reluctant.

The original two-story restaurant was rebuilt into a three-story restaurant, which is one floor higher than the common restaurants in Chang'an City. From the first floor to the third floor, the higher the level, the higher the level. In Wang Xiang's words, it is a high-end atmosphere. Low-key luxury has connotations. The third floor and the first floor are naturally different from each other, which corresponds to the name of Dengxian Tower.

The idea of ​​minimum consumption put forward by Wang Xiang makes it difficult for Degui to understand. Except for the first floor, there is no minimum consumption requirement for eating in Dengxianlou. The second and third floors have minimum consumption requirements, and the so-called minimum consumption is not low at all. Dengxianlou The minimum consumption on the second floor is 50 taels of silver, and the minimum consumption on the third floor is 100 taels of silver.

Degui simply wondered if Wang Xiang was crazy about money. In the past, Degui Restaurant could order a table full of dishes for one tael of silver, but at Baiwei Restaurant, a table of delicacies from mountains and seas could be ordered for a dozen taels of silver. Enough is enough, 50 taels and 100 taels are unimaginable.

When Degui raised a question, Wang Xiang just said lightly: "You can eat on the first floor if you think it's too expensive." With Degui's IQ, he was speechless when he heard this. Eat on the first floor, and there is no minimum consumption requirement on the first floor, but I feel something is wrong.

Opening restaurants in Chang'an City earns money from rich people. Rich people often eat not food but the atmosphere and grade of food. They are all rich and nobles in Chang'an City. If you look up and look down, others go to immortals. Meals are always on the second and third floors. Do you think you have the nerve to sit on the first floor every time?

Of course, the premise of everything is that there must be enough grades to ascend to the Immortal Tower, and the layout of the restaurant is high enough, but the layout of a restaurant is not enough. Is a restaurant without good wine and food still a restaurant?

In terms of fine wine, there is no problem with tasting wine, but the wine is too strong and not suitable for women, and wine from the Western Regions is hard to come by, so Wang Xiang has been working on fruit juice and fruit wine recently, and has already achieved initial results.

As for gourmet food, hot pot, barbecue, Malatang...all kinds of novel ways of eating have made the people in the Hou Mansion take the lead in satisfying their addiction, and the Chinese food recipes copied by Wang Xiang are hidden by Aunt Lin and refuse to show others easily In her words, this is a family heirloom to be passed on to future generations, making Wang Xiang dumbfounded.

"Brother-in-law, when will our restaurant open?"

Little Lolita's consciousness is very high. Since she has become Wang Xiang's sister-in-law, Dengxianlou is naturally the restaurant of "our family". What's more, little Lolita is still thinking about the bet she made with Wang Xiang back then, afraid that he will remember it. She also blamed him for not being able to remember, because she might not be able to figure out the entanglement in her heart.

"Yes, Wang Jiancheng, when will our restaurant open?"

Ok?Wang Xiang squinted at Li Zhi. Fortunately, you called me brother-in-law before your second arrival, but when did you have a follower like you in Dengxianlou?

Little Lolita was even more impolite, she stared at Li Zhi with her hands on her hips and said, "This ascending fairy tower belongs to our Hou Mansion, and has nothing to do with you."

"I...that's what I asked."

"You can't even ask!"

"Then...then I won't ask."

Wang Xiang shook his head when he saw Li Zhi looking anxious, this baby is useless, since meeting the little loli Li Zhi, the calmness and wisdom before have all disappeared, now he is just a melon with an IQ that makes people anxious, if this continues, the future high Emperor Zong won't become two hundred and five.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiang felt a chill, and quickly said, "Ernan, don't bully His Royal Highness King Jin."

"I didn't bully him, did I, a childish slave?"

"No, sister Xiao Wu is very nice to me."

This baby is not cured, Wang Xiang gave up saving the future Emperor Gaozong and ignored the two little devils.

"Degui, have you delivered all the hot pot that someone made a few days ago?"

When Degui heard this, he immediately became excited, and said excitedly: "Here they are, there are a hundred hot pots in the kitchen. Aunt Lin has tried it and it works well."

Of course it's easy to use, do you think it's the big pot in the mansion?Since he was going to launch the hot pot in Dengxian Tower, Wang Xiang naturally made preparations. He specially made a hundred exquisite small hot pots. The top is a pot for food, and the bottom is a stove for charcoal fire. For aesthetics.It is not difficult to make hot pot, and it is easy for other restaurants to learn, but Wang Xiang is not worried about this, because the most important thing about hot pot is not the pot but the bottom material, let alone other restaurants do not know the bottom material recipe, even if they know The recipe also lacks the ingredients.When the hot pot base ingredients in the warehouse are used up, Wang Xiang will have to make the base ingredients himself. Fortunately, there is a recipe on the packaging, not to mention that the ingredients are exactly the same, and it is no problem to make seven or eight images.

"Where's the grill?"

"One hundred sets of barbecue grills are also delivered. It's the cumin that the young master said. I asked many people and said they haven't seen it."

Wang Xiang frowned. The taste of barbecue would be completely different without cumin. The cumin in the warehouse would not last long. Could it be that there was no cumin in the Tang Dynasty?
"How about this, you put up a notice outside saying that Dengxianlou buys cumin at a high price, and barbecue is indispensable."

After Degui posted the notice, Wang Xiang pulled him aside and asked in a low voice, "How is the thing I asked you to do?"

"What is the young master talking about?" Degui looked a little flustered.

"It's the matter of letting you buy someone."

Degui looked at Wang Xiang with embarrassment and said, "Master, this is a restaurant, not Qing..."

Wang Xiang said angrily: "Where did you go, I asked you to buy some young and beautiful girls for welcome and etiquette."

"What is welcome and etiquette?"

"It's the senior junior." Wang Xiang explained angrily.

"Xiao Er?" Degui exclaimed with pain on his face, "Master, it is enough to hire a Xiao Er for eight renminbi a month, besides, the official prostitutes of the Jiaofang Division are established and cannot be bought or sold."

The little loli who was talking to Li Zhi had sharp ears, and when she heard the word "official prostitute", she glanced suspiciously at Wang Xiang.

"Hush, keep your voice down!" Wang Xiang gave Degui a hard look.

"Master, official prostitutes of the Jiaofang Division really cannot be bought or sold." Degui wanted to cry, if his father knew that he helped the young master to do such a thing, he would definitely beat him to death.

"Damn! The young master is doing serious business, what are you afraid of!" Seeing the little loli turning her head frequently, Wang Xiang said in a low voice with guilt: "If it doesn't work, then go to other places to inquire about it. There are many places like Xianglou, Chunfenglou, and Chang'an City."

"Master, why don't you let Laifu go, I'm stupid and I'm afraid I'll ruin your serious business." Degui cried and said in his heart: If this is serious business, I'm really a fool. If it's serious business, you are so nervous do what.

"Laifu is going to be busy with the wine-tasting shop, and I will leave it to you. When Dengxianlou will open, it depends on when you finish this matter. I will train people after they buy it. Can you Hurry up."

These words hit Degui's weakness, he was more anxious than anyone else about the opening of Dengxianlou.

"Master, are you really a second child when you buy it?"

"Of course, you don't believe what the young master said?"

Degui burst into tears: "I believe..."

Threats and lures finally got Degui out, Wang Xiang called Xiao Luoli and Li Zhi, and the three boarded the carriage and headed for Zhuangzi outside the city.When tidying up the warehouse, he found a lot of seeds of melons, fruits and vegetables that were not available in the Tang Dynasty, and planned to set aside a field in the village to plant these things, as well as fungus, which is more precious than delicacies from mountains and seas.
